Before I take a look at Get Santa, a warm welcome to Chiara, my fellow film partner in crime. I hope you enjoyed her review of the film and that mine lives up to her standard.
It has to be said that this year’s seasonal films didn’t get off to the best of starts with Nativity 3 – and that’s the last time I’m going to mention that particular travesty. So, is Get Santa any better?
Breathe easy. It is.

Movies are released on Blu-Ray and DVD sooner and sooner. You are at the premiere today and within a few months they are available to be purchased and they are cheaper and cheaper. You wonder sometimes if it is worth going to the cinema. But yes it is worth it, as the cinema with its special 3D effects, or simply the big screen is priceless. Or at least it is for a movie junkie like me. Here is London Mums’ favourite KIDS’ DVDs released ahead of Christmas. There’s something for everyone.

Here’s one trailer that simply couldn’t wait! Minions doesn’t hit the UK until June of next year, but this first look at the world according to the adorable little yellow creatures from Despicable Me is an absolute must-see.
There’s no Gru this time, so the babbling critters get all the limelight. And if the movie turns out to be as funny as the trailer, we’re in for a treat next summer!
